The Heiress Acts Mischievously, But Her Family Can Read Her Mind novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402: Chapter 401: Who is the person Lu Qingyan has locked up?

Leaving Jing University, Jiang Nanshu went to a nearby milk tea shop and bought a cup of lemon water.

The air outside was fresher, as long as Lu Qingyan didn’t act up, she was free.

After taking a couple of sips, she prepared to drive away when a black car stopped in front of her. The window slowly rolled down, revealing a face that was somewhat similar to Lu Qingyan’s, but seemed much more haggard by comparison. He stared at Jiang Nanshu for a few seconds and then suddenly smiled, "Shall we talk?

Jiang Nanshu squinted her eyes, Liang Ciqiu...

If it weren’t for his appearance, Jiang Nanshu would have almost forgotten about this person.

But she didn’t feel there was anything worth discussing with Liang Ciqiu.

She took another sip of her lemon water and said lazily, "Talk about what?"

Liang Ciqiu looked at her as a mocking smile surfaced around his eyes, "Jiang Nanshu, do you really understand Lu Qingyan? Do you know what he’s been doing over the years? Come with me, and I’ll give you the answers."

Jiang Nanshu fell silent for a long time, pondering the truth behind Liang Ciqiu’s words.

"Ha, maybe you’ve already discovered the person he’s been keeping in the villa. Aren’t you curious who that person is? I know you want to investigate on your own, but Lu Qingyan had already moved that person away the day before yesterday," Liang Ciqiu said with a smile, certain that Jiang Nanshu would follow him.

Meanwhile, Jiang Nanshu’s hand tightened around the cup of lemon water, and after a moment, she smiled, "And why should I believe you?"

Liang Ciqiu’s handsome face showed a helpless expression, "Let’s just go sit at a nearby café. What do you think I want to do to you?"

Her memory went back to that summer.

Jiang Nanshu had slapped him hard several times, cursing him as a dog, pinching his face and telling him he was nothing but a stand-in for Lu Qingyan.

At that time, his heart had fluttered for Jiang Nanshu.

She was so ostentatious, beautiful, and venomous.

Bad to the bone, yet irresistibly attractive.

Liang Ciqiu greedily looked at Jiang Nanshu’s bold and bright face, his eyes curving into a smile, "If I hadn’t been bewitched by Su Ran, Jiang Nanshu, our ending might have been different."

Jiang Nanshu finished the lemon water and stood still as she threw the cup into a nearby trash bin.

She returned his gaze with a radiant smile, "Su Ran is really pitiful, encountering a bunch of men like you, she’s truly had bad luck for eight lifetimes."

Jiang Nanshu opened the passenger door and sat down, "Let’s drive."

Liang Ciqiu suddenly leaned in close to her, reaching out as if to wrap his arms around her. Jiang Nanshu pushed him away with a smile in her eyes, "What are you doing, huh?"

Her tone carried a chill.

Liang Ciqiu looked even more helpless, "I just wanted to buckle your seatbelt for you. Can you not be so hostile toward me? Jiang Nanshu, I’m not going to do anything to you."

"You’d also need to be capable of doing something."

That was taunting him for being weak.

Liang Ciqiu watched Jiang Nanshu and simply smiled, without saying a word.

"It’s been several years since we’ve last seen each other, we’re old friends by now, right?"

Jiang Nanshu fastened her seatbelt and didn’t respond to Liang Ciqiu’s words.

Liang Ciqiu wasn’t offended, driving away with Jiang Nanshu.

At the same time.

Several photos were simultaneously sent to Lu Qingyan’s phone.

The phone vibrated, Lu Qingyan thought it was Jiang Nanshu sending him a message, so he unlocked his phone without caring that he was in the middle of a meeting. The mysterious photos arrived first, followed by a video.

He clicked play, and it showed Jiang Nanshu standing by the road, laughing and talking with Liang Ciqiu, then getting into the car. Finally, Liang Ciqiu embraced her inside the vehicle, filmed in meticulous detail.

Lu Qingyan’s breath became lighter involuntarily.

When he opened the photos, the two had entered a cafe, and not long after, they drove to a hotel, with Jiang Nanshu following him in.

Lu Qingyan’s eyes narrowed, his expression calm.

"President Lu? President Lu, I’ve finished my report. What do you think?" The department head looked nervously at the boss at the head of the table.

And Lu Qingyan stared at Liang Ciqiu’s face.

"Trash."

Lu Qingyan returned to his office and grabbed his suit jacket before heading out. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Then he dialed Jiang Nanshu’s number.

After a few seconds of ringing, it was answered, and Jiang Nanshu’s clear and pleasant voice came through, "Hello?"

"Where are you?"

Lu Qingyan’s hand shook slightly.

With his left hand, he tried to steady his trembling right hand and asked calmly.

Jiang Nanshu, in the hotel, did not notice anything odd about Lu Qingyan’s tone; she just felt it was incredibly bad luck.

After hesitating for two seconds, not wanting to divulge that she was with Liang Ciqiu, she said, "I’m with Xixi, I’ll be back in a bit."

There was silence on the other end for a full five seconds before the voice came, husky, "Okay, good."

The call ended with a beep.

Jiang Nanshu put her phone in her bag and looked towards Liang Ciqiu, who was sitting not far away on the couch, and asked indifferently, "Spit it out, who is the person locked up in there?"

However, Liang Ciqiu did not answer her question but instead looked at Jiang Nanshu with a peculiar gaze, laughing, "You lied to Lu Qingyan, why not reveal me? It makes us look as if we are having an affair."

Jiang Nanshu stared at him coldly, "Don’t disgust me. There’s no need to cause misunderstandings."

She was afraid Lu Qingyan would start having wild thoughts.

Especially now that they were in a hotel.

If it weren’t for the café waiter’s clumsiness in spilling a drink all over her, she wouldn’t be here to change clothes, and ultimately the reason she came here was...

Liang Ciqiu said, if someone else heard this secret,

Lu Qingyan would go to prison.

Jiang Nanshu let out a cold laugh, "Tell me, who is Lu Qingyan keeping imprisoned?"

Liang Ciqiu looked at her, laughing, his demeanor changed as if seeing her was something to be happy about.

"It’s Chu Muxi, he has imprisoned Chu Muxi for five years."
